Achievement Rewards Unveiled

Last week there were rumors that Microsoft was starting an incentive program that would reward gamers with physical merchandise for their Xbox 360 Achievements. Today Microsoft confirmed this program and disclosed the spicy details.

Dubbed the Experience Challenge, players that increase their gamerscore by 1,500 between February 12 and April 12, 2007, will receive a chance to win some Xbox Live bounty. The rewards will be divided into three levels:

Level 1 (Gamers who have an annual gamerscore between 0-4,999 at time of entry): Game Picture, Dashboard theme, Contra for Xbox LIVE Arcade

Level 2 (5,000-9,999 annual gamerscore): Level 1 Package, 100 Microsoft Points and a contest T-shirt

Level 3 (10,000+ annual gamerscore): Level 1 Package, 200 Microsoft Points, contest T-shirt and Fusion Frenzy 2

Those who achieve levels one or two will have their Rewards Level upgraded for 2007.
